Fall Orientation 2017

RSVP today for Fall 2017 Regular New Student Orientation!

ORIENTATION/ADVISEMENT: Orientation is required of all beginning freshmen and transfer students (not previously enrolled at MSU).

Students should make arrangements to attend the entire day of orientation in order to complete the advising and registration process. Note: A small number of MSU departments and organizations mandate attendance at their own, specific “orientation” programs in addition to New Student Orientation. These isolated “orientation” programs do not substitute for New Student Orientation.

What is Orientation and why do I have to attend?

Orientation is the time when entering undergraduates visit Midwestern State University and learn all about programs, services and opportunities available. Students meet with their faculty advisor and register for their upcoming classes and enjoy interacting with fellow peers and student leaders. After attending orientation, students are well-prepared to enter college life and coursework at Midwestern State University. Parents and family are welcome to attend orientation events.

IMPORTANT:

If you have a TSI status of "not taken" or "partially exempt" you will not be allowed register for classes until we have TSI test scores or proof of a full TSI exemption. Therefore, students who are not exempt and have not attended another Texas public college, must schedule to take the TSI Assessment in the required subject areas prior to registration. Additional information can be found at mwsu.edu/registrar/success/index. TSI questions? Call the TSI Coordinator in the MSU Registrar's Office at 940-397-4320.

Additionally, students will not be allowed to register if they have not met the meningitis immunization record requirements.
